“In 2025, when queer and trans people face a new wave of public scrutiny, legal surveillance, and violent erasure, Princess Seraphina’s story challenges the notion that queer lives were always hidden, always punished, and always alone.” 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 Read more from Scott Terlouw in Broadsides' #pride series.
